JAKARTA - Today, the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has grief news after the passing of one of the best talents named Artidjo Alkostar. The man who has been devoted to law enforcement in Indonesia for the last time served as the KPK Supervisory Board.

His figure was judged by the public as so firmly. Just look at the rows of corruption cases he has handled. It is noted that the big names from Angelina Sondakh, Anas Urbaningrum to Akil Mochtar have experienced Artidjo's straightforward attitude in upholding the principle of justice.

However, this alumnus of the Islamic University of Indonesia (UII) is a humanist and at the same time simple. Just look at the value of the assets he accumulated while building a career in law, only IDR 922 million.

This number was obtained after he submitted a wealth report to the anti-corruption agency on January 9, 2020, as a form of obligation for a public official.

Meanwhile, Artidjo's greatest asset is a landed house with a land area of 197 square meters and a building area of 100 square meters in Sleman, Yogyakarta, worth IDR 700 million.

Artidjo's simplicity is further proven by the fact that he does not own a motorized vehicle of any kind. In fact, his position is very strategic in the institution that is said to be the most feared by all officials in this republic.

Furthermore, it was also stated that Artidjo's other assets were in the form of other movable assets of IDR 19 million, as well as cash equivalents of IDR 203 million without a debt record.

In total, the assets of the judge who had studied at Northwestern University Chicago are not up to IDR 1 billion.

However, these numbers are meaningless compared to Artidjo Alkostar's best priceless treasure: integrity and honesty.

Goodbye, Mr. Judge!
